Things like the pathnames of the aliases files changing can be dealt
with in the localise.sh file.  In the localise.sh file I use locally I
also modify Install.sh to include a -d <dir> option to allow the .cf
file to be installed in /etc or elsewhere.  My localise.sh follows:

 #!/bin/sh

 # add option to Install.sh

 ed ../Install.sh <<'EOF'
 /^$/i
 # if -d dir is specified, the cf file is rcp'd to <dir>/sendmail.cf
 .
 /verbose/a
 dir=/usr/lib
 .
 /\*)/i
 -d)	dir=$2
 shift
 ;;
 .
 /usr.lib.sendmail.cf/s/.usr.lib/$dir/
 w Install.sh
 q
 EOF

 #  change /usr/lib paths to /etc in base.m4

 ed base.m4 <<'EOF'
 /^OA/s/usr.lib/etc/p
 /^OF/s/0644/0600/p
 w
 q
 EOF
